Beyond The Flow Numbers with Einstein Motors
A flow bench doesn’t measure flow—it measures pressure drop. So how useful are flow numbers, and can they really tell you if a cylinder head is the right size? In this episode, we break down the limitations of flow benches, why CFM ratings can be misleading, and what really matters when evaluating airflow. Want to calculate proper port sizing?

In this debut episode, we dive deep into flow bench testing - a critical but often misunderstood tool in engine development. We explore why popular flow benches like SuperFlow primarily measure pressure drop rather than actual CFM (cubic feet per minute), and what this means for your engine building results. Learn why direct CFM measurement is more complex than you might think, how pressure drop correlates to flow, and most importantly - what this means for interpreting your flow bench results. Whether you're an experienced engine builder or just getting started, this episode will help you better understand your flow testing data and avoid common misconceptions."
